43 Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the Lord, and the commandment wherewith I charged thee?
44 The King said also to Shimei, [a]Thou knowest all the wickedness whereunto thine heart is privy, that thou didst to David my father: the Lord therefore shall bring thy wickedness upon thine own head.
45 And let king Solomon be blessed, and the throne of David established before the Lord forever.
